A wonderful place to learn about dinosaurs and science

This is a wonderful museum for all ages. Our grandchildren loved all the dinosaur exhibits and the amazing amount of information that came with these full sized mammoths. There was also a section in regards to space and many many other exhibits in two floors and several rooms to explore.

Have never seen such a wonderful display tracing the history of life on earth, back to the Big Bang, through all the steps in creation of life. Just absolutely first class. Great for "mature" kids, but all kinds of visual aids to make it friendly for all ages. Highly recommend!

Visions of Kate Winslet and Leo filled my head with cliche ideas of heart-shaped necklaces and cheesy soundtracks. The photographer at the beginning of the exhibit, offering to take our picture on a fake hull of a ship did not help, nor her probing questions of …

This was our fourth visit to Albuquerque, New Mexico. Visiting old town square is always fun to do. A shoppers haven. So many shops around the square and plenty of restaurants.
